my ordinary grace

this morning I won a prize --
daffodils (respect)
tulips (there is sunshine in your smile)
daisies (purity)
all the beauty of spring
wrapped in tissue
and
delivered to my desk at work
it was commented
that my spirit can be seen
wrapped up in this bouquet --
yet all I can see is you.
I respect you --
and I adore the way you
make me smile, even when I am so mad I can't speak,
but most of all -- these daisies state
with white and yellow lace
and an ordinary grace --
that nothing is more pure than
my intentions.
